This question has been inspired from another thread that I read this morning and got me wondering.
Do you think that losing a pet is comparable/the same as losing a relative?
I have a dog and two cats and on one hand if I lost a close family member and someone compares it to them losing their cat I’d probably be a bit annoyed. But then again, when I put myself in the position of losing one of my animals I know that I will feel utterly devastated and heartbroken. Grief is grief and loss is loss. But are they comparable? What do you think?
